bob himself as a journalist by trade. and 38 years worked for the huntington herald a dispatch in huntington west virginia where he currently lives. he has a ba and ma from marshall university. while he was in college he worked summers for the railroad. that actually is how i got to know, bob. i interned at the museum in baltimore, maryland. mutual interest and admiration got us together. i welcome bob and i will begin the presentation now. one other programming notes, so understand all presidents use trains to travel around and still do on some occasions. we picked seven presidents because of some specific issues they encountered or specific milestones that are associated with their presidential train travel. at the conclusion of the stock are going to end with a couple video presentations from the george h.w. bush funeral train courtesy of union pacific so please stick around for that to think you will enjoy that very much. there are three main i guess pieces of presidential train and travel the campaign which is prime

last november when bob became director i noted. that the men and women of the intelligence community. faced a new new mission in a dramatically different world and i stated then and i'd like to just repeat it now. that we must not diminish our intelligence their big changes. i think the world may be perceived to be more peaceful. but in my view the need for intelligence is as great as ever and you are doing a great job and i will try to be a voice after i leave and a few more days for keeping this intelligence community the strongest the best in the entire world, which it is now, so i i do think there have been dramatic changes. i had a chance to visit with some of the analysts and operators upstairs and we talked about the visit that barbara and i had to the soviet union what used to be the soviet union. i got to learn to say russia now, but but with with yeltsin and i think that the work of this agency and of the intelligence community through the years really probably will never get the credit that it deserves for for affecting

i would be glad to convey that on to those who follow bob gates and die. so, let me just say that the work you have done has always been hard. no question about that. i think on the operation side, particularly, but it is true on the intelligence side, everything. the dangers that we face as a country are real, and i still get emotionally convinced of that when i see the stars out in the hall of this building. and, i just think that the nation is very fortunate to have the service of everybody here. you do not get to sit at the head table quite as much as i have in my last incarnations, you do not get saluted as much as others indifferent departments, but you deserve a great deal of credit. to i came to say thank you, now, before i depart i have one last matter that i want to do. and i would like, bob, is becky in here? or is she right in front, becky, come on up. the kids as well. i want to get the gates family here, it gives me great pleasure, particularly surrounded by people who have worked with bob to honor him, here, as a distinguished public servant

one is that bob as ultimate patients. if you go into an interview with bob, it doesn't matter how many handlers are there saying last question last question. bob will continue to ask more and more questions. he won't get up. he has an iron rear end. [laughing] and the second is he always asks for documents. do you have memos? do you have journals? do you have files? that's the technique. i want to close on a couple of questions about watergate characters. one, start with you, bob. the obvious question about mark felt as deep throat. how essential was he in the reporting that you did? in other words, the question, would nixon have survived without the case being revealed? what would've happened if there was no mark felt or deep throat? and was he as maddeningly cryptic in real life as he was on the screen? >> oh, yes. definitely. carl and i went to see them after and he was elderly and using a red sport jacket, remember, but you know, one of the things carl and i learned about this partnership, and we only framed it this w

bob and corals journalism prove them wrong. they're reporting fueled a massive senate investigation that led to 48 criminal prosecutions and richard nixon's resignation, showing the world that our democracy, event the most powerful person in the land, the president of the united states, it's not above the law. here at the washington post, we are incredibly proud of the reporters who work every day to uphold this legacy and provide the transparency and accountability that democracy requires. it is now my pleasure to introduce you to three journalists who represent the very best of the washington post -- dan balz, bob woodward, and carl bernstein. >> the story started on a saturday. that means that big shot reporters like their weekends off. you have the youngsters who are generally in there on saturdays on sundays. that was true for this story. woodward and bernstein were too young metropolitan reporters who were working that day. i mean, that is how they got the assignment. what they did with it was something else. >> therefore

[ bleep ] you, jimmy. >> mark: what is this, a clarinet? >> guillermo: yeah. >> mark: guillermo, this is how it's going to work. you're going to have this rope. we built this contraption such that when you pull that rope, not yet, this platform will tip down, the catalyst will go into the hydrogen peroxide, then we get elephant toothpaste. just like that. >> guillermo: just like that? >> mark: just like that. if this were a re

bob, let me go to you as well. some reporting that you've been getting and with the passage of this legislation, what have you been hearing? >> listen, democrats now do have something to run on. they have been struggling to find a message. yes, the abortion decision from the supreme court with something democrats are talking about. democrats think they have the significant polling advantage on that. now they can talk about this though. this is significant. it is going to be a pr battle between republicans and it regrets. he saw favre president trump go after manchin over the weekend last night for his support of this. you know, a lot of republicans were praising sinema and manchin. now they're not. so now it's game on and it's election time. this is going to be front and center of the entire fall debate, whether it is house, senate, other races. they're gonna be talking about this bill and whether it's good for america are not. >> let me ask you this question. should democrats concentrate more on their winds or con

i'll show bob. and now the siege is a is over, but a something else. it's not that phosphate that the answer bob is attacking or tell . 2 years ago they also attacked a hotel and 16 people are killed. so it will be interesting to see how president mahmud deals we, they also bob, now that his box for the office. right. let's talk more about that because this attack was the 1st in the capital by our bob, under somali as new government. what does that mean for stability and for their ability to maintain stability? well, it just lasted for about a, let's say, around 36 hours. so the police, why able to actually, i mean, i flush out there al suburban sergeant and i and sure that everyone who had been held hostage was actually rescued. but what it means to his abilities that now that i just last month, one of their former shabbily does, was i selected by their prime minister in somali to be in charge of religion and a thought cut across also. so it will be interesting to see how the 2 individuals with their prime minister, the president, and when you are rec

bob: i think you got a clear message from the fed. they are embarrassed that lester year they were slow in addressing the inflation problem. the message from the fed is they want to aggressively training inflation expectations. i think clear guidance from the fed. if you are right, and we do have a plot number, let's define that as 9% plus. that will be defined as a by significantly worrying. then there is a chance we would have an unprecedented, unusual that meeting. -- unusual fed meeting. francine: there's no chance that inflation go down quickly. bob: the risk of a sharp decline in inflation is very low in 2022. i think a 2023 with macy much better inflation numbers. -- we macy much better inflation numbers. tom: what does your experience tell you about the yield curve invasion and the time that lag between the inversion and when recession hits. bob: it is difficult comparing current circumstances with previous recessions. if we look at one from 2000, 2001, or 2008 to 2009, we had deeper sessions, a major contraction in economic a

bob is an attack like this for people in mogadishu . is this something that comes as a surprise to people there? you know, i love that we're recording soon is 2010, but the last to one then the last column is the fastest in the last one says new administration led by this and i said to him to boller last last he may so it, it, it may have been, is it will have been if the step to kept the follow of attacks are not taken by the government. all right, journalists, busha maxima there in august issue. thanks for that update. and let's get you. reminder, the top stories were following for you right now that the nation's chief, antonio tavish, has visited the black sea facility. that court is coordinating, ukrainian grain exports and made rushes war. he said many more shipments are needed to help boost global supply. he also said russia has to step up its own exports of fertilizer food products at all for this our up. next we have a documentary darwin in time square, the science of urban evolution. you want to stick around for that and we'll

and she, bob has claimed responsibility. these types of attacks have been a hallmark of altima operations a couple years ago in particular layer. and they are very kind of slowed down a little bit. but we see them popping up again. rooted from the scene shows extensive damage to the hotel. several people have been taken to hospital. the victims reportedly include the children, as well as the hotels owner. so tell us are usually attacked because that's areas where government officials congregate and in. so there's a lot of meetings, a lot of activity, especially right now with the new government coming into into place and setting up a lot of appointments and positions. but there's also often been a secondary element to some of you, you know, bob runs a very extensive extortion racket within morbid issue itself. and they've targeted business owners that haven't complied as well. the group is affiliated to unpaid and has carried numerous attacks in we'll get issue in the past decade. it's a is to establish a system of governmen

they all show bob now that he's back to the office. right, let's talk more about that because this attack was the 1st in the capital by our bob. under somali as new government, what does that mean for stability and for their ability to maintain stability? well, it just lasted for about a, let's say around 36 hours. so the police why able to actually come in and flash out their al bobby and sergeant and i and sure that everyone who had been held hostage was actually rescued. but what it means to is the abilities that now that i just last month, one of their former shabbily does was desolate, said by the prime minister in somali to be in charge of religion and a thought cuts across also. so it will be interesting to see how the 2 individuals were the prime minister, the president and then you are recruit will be able to deal with this is sergeant and are also cattail their influence, which has been growing in the last few years. now there are rumors about why out of attack this hotel, one being that the hotel failed to pay extortion mone

bob. in fact, they influence a much above, under his fast tenure of office actually went really low and this is just a test for him. but the military has shown that to be able to respond to his situation, abate a little bit late, or we could not have seen are the number of deaths that we've seen. but something else on some of the analyst in somali, i seeing that aside from a, a combat attack where it's their military, i guess they'll show bob in sergeant's, that the government will need to do more, will need to talk to some of their album leaders and see where, where they can actually meet halfway so that some of these attacks are within the city. i can actually, and i saw apart from the military attack there would be need i more will need to be done by president form. what's government to see to weeds that i doubt about militants? are quite a silence once and for all. he doesn't correspondent felix miranda in nairobi. thanks so much. now, the daughter of the man described as putin's brain
